Solution

I'm sorry, but there seems to be a misunderstanding. The equation you've provided, cos3 θ = cos(3θ) + 3 cos θ4, is not correct.

De Moivre's theorem is typically used to find the nth roots of complex numbers and it states that (cos θ + i sin θ)^n = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ).

If you want to express cos(3θ) in terms of cosines, you can use the following trigonometric identity:

cos(3θ) = 4cos³(θ) - 3cos(θ)

This is derived from the multiple angle formula for cosine, not De Moivre's theorem.
